Rose Calls USDA Disaster Relief a ‘Huge Blessing for Tennessee Farmers’ | 2025-12-12 | 2025 | 2025-12 | Republican | House | TN | John W. Rose | R000612 | johnrose.house.gov | johnrose | https://johnrose.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON, DC—Today, U.S. Representative John Rose (TN-06) announced his support of United States Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) $38.1 million grant agreement with the Tennessee Department of Agriculture (TDA) to cover losses from Hurricane Helene. The grant will target infrastructure and timber losses in addition to future economic losses and market losses. “Today’s announcement by U.S. Deputy Secretary of Agriculture Stephen Vaden, a fellow Tennessean, is a huge blessing for East Tennessee agriculture producers,” Rep. Rose said. “Some areas of Tennessee received up to 15 inches of rainfall during Hurricane Helene, ruining crops and forage, littering fields with debris, and resulting in loss of equipment and other infrastructure. This is yet another example of the Trump Administration following through on its commitment to our nation’s farmers.” The finalized agreement between USDA, Governor Bill Lee, and TDA will cover qualifying losses not addressed by other USDA disaster programs. Tennessee agriculture producers should seek additional information through TDA. | 1 | 2026-06-27T21:44:12Z | 2026-06-27T22:31:39Z |
